I have been drying my socks and undergarments with heat for 25 years
Me too.
 
Maybe add a maybe option to your poll, you will have to decide the outcome since no one here has seen these to make a reasonable guess.
 
I've never heard of a drysuit undergarment made of recycled polyester and recycled spandex. Spandex will shrink in dryer heat, but I would be more concerned that those materials would keep me warm in a drysuit.
 
Yes

Cressi Undersuit for Dry Suit, Unisex Adult Monopiece Thermal Undersuit with Front Zip for Dry Suits​

Got on Amazon
First time I am aware of this drysuit underwear. From here (https://store.cressi.com/products/undersuit-for-drysuit): "The undersuit is an undersuit to wear underneath your scuba diving drysuit for more warmth. It is lightweight with a front vertical zipper, plus elastic feet and hand stirrups for a more convenient experience. It is composed of recycled polyester and recycled spandex."

I wasn't able to find care instructions (nor much other info) for this underwear.

I’m going to find out on my first ocean dive this weekend. Finishing my open water course, I know wool is better for warmth but this was a gift from my mother so it’s better then wool.
